N K DHABHAR CANCER FOUNDTION (NKDCF) was started with the vision of carrying out various activities to support cancer patients. NKDCF was launched on 5th June 2011 in Mumbai, in memory of Mr Nariman K Dhabhar, who was also a cancer patient, and father of Dr Boman Dhabhar (Sr Medical Oncologist). It is a non-profit organisation based in Mumbai. At the foundation we recognise the needs of cancer patients and strive to provide them with clinical and emotional support, thereby improving their quality of life.
At OnCare Cancer Patients and their Families are looked after in an extremely Holistic Manner and FREE OF COST. Their Medical Needs such as Pain Management and Other Symptom management are taken care of by our able team of Palliative Care Physicians, Nurses, Physiotherapists, and Occupational Therapists.
Besides this we look after their Psycho Social Needs through our Counsellors, Psycho Therapists, Volunteers and other programs such as Yoga, Meditation, and Mindfulness etc Their Nutritional & Dietary requirements are fulfilled by our trained Nutritionists who have special knowledge and training especially for Cancer Patients. We have special Support Groups for different types of Cancers as patients can connect better with
someone who has experienced similar problems as them. We collaborate with different NGOs and conduct support group meetings for patients and their families.
